Dose dependent Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms to allopurinol in a Caucasian female

2024-09-11

Abstract excerpt

Allopurinol is a widely prescribed medication for gout, but it carries a risk of severe hypersensitivity reactions, particularly in individuals with the HLA-B*5801 allele.
